Play button is 50% non functional. The book marker doesn't always work. The help doesn't seem to have any listings for my issue withe the play button not working. I have rebooted both phone and app. Made sure my app is up to date and still nothing works. You can listen to things if the play button doesn't work. What do I like: it free and when it works it's great.

Works fine for me as a visually impaired user to read my existing ePub books aloud. The free voice is bearable, however, with the premium voices priced at £6.99 each, it would be good if there was a preview paragraph read by each to help pick one to buy. The lexicon editor is great, especially for more technical books. I also line the option to add notes to my bookmarks, it would be nice if these could be synced between phone and PC, e.g. via Microsoft OneDrive integration.

Bookmarks on audiobook don't work - only allows three and often doesn't save properly. It titles them a % of what you have read but that doesn't match up with the % read in the book information. After listening to the same section multiple times because of this I gave up and uninstalled it. There is no night mode or dark mode which is essential for visually impaired people. The app keeps the screen on while playing, I couldn't find an option to turn this off and this uses a lot of battery.
